    I think my head gasket failed

    What is the smaller rectangular opening next to the bolt for? I understand that the other four (only three shown in this picture) provide the cylinders with air, what is the function of the fifth one?

    I think my head gasket failed

    I saw your turbo, it was in great shape, very clean, no signs of oil. Yes, will take another look after 1k miles.

    I think my head gasket failed

    I am so sorry to hear about your troubles, I have much smaller issues and it’s painful, I can only imagine your pain. On the positive side once it’s fixed you can enjoy the truck without worries, if it was going to fail, it’s better that it happened closer to your house than on some road trip.

    I think my head gasket failed

    On a similar subject of figuring out the engine condition, I read that you have a borescope (I have one a 6mm), besides going thru the glow plugs, are there other areas I should look at if my blow-by doesn’t improve?
